thank you im a bit biased but like to think he is special :D
Wish I had a pound for everyone that asked what he is crossed with ie border collie and ??? or huskie and ????:p
 
He is simply stunning!! Still has a bit of a baby face though I think...awww I want him now! :D

What happened that he nearly died if you don't mind me asking? Must have been one determined pup to fight through death twice...
 
The aussies I have seen have looked maybe a little taller and he does look to have a bit of knuckle left, but hard to tell from a picture. The tail really threw me, first Aussie I have seen with one, makes them look very different. He is a lovely looking lad.:)

I rehomed Axel because his father attacked him .Owner / breeder came home one day to find him with his throat in ribbons his dad had attacked him so violently his puppy collar was torn to pieces.He had to go on oxygen at vets and they didnt think he would pull through.Bit of a close call twice.I didnt like to ask to much as it was very upsetting letting him go but they couldnt keep adult dog in a kennel 24/7 .It hasnt affected him he is still very friendly and never snaps back even if attacked.He was very shy if anyone grabbed his collar initially and wary of strangers but he is confident friendly boy now.
Sorry but you cant have him he is absolutely loyal to me as I am to him lol
heres a baby pic :D

I was hoping he would be close to gsd in size.I had golden retriever previously and like big dogs.He is already bigger than most collies and much heavier set.:)
 
The breed standard size for aussies is a bit smaller than GSDs, max 23 " for a male whereas its 26" for a GSD. But having said that plenty of dogs grow bigger than breed standard as I know to my cost. :p
